the voltage of your country is required.
Instructions for grounding
Grounding method
Your refrigerator has a power cord with a 3-prong plug.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, the power cord must be
connected to a proper and grounded outlet for 3-pin plugs,
according to the National Electrical Code and all local codes and
ordinances.
If the site does not have a proper and grounded outlet, consult a
qualified electrician to install it.
Do not modify the plug of your product.
Water dispenser (some models)
Your new refrigerator has an innovative water system on the door for
drawing
cold water without opening the refrigerator door, thus avoiding
excessive openings and hence reducing power consumption.
Water tank
The water tank must be manually filled and it is located inside the refrigerator compartment door.
The maximum reservoir capacity is 3.5 liters of water.
IMPORTANT:
•
Clean the system before using it for the first time. To clean, fill the tank with clean water and
press the trigger dispenser with a large container or a jar, removing at least 1 liter of water.
Throw the water away. This process helps to clean and remove the air from the dispenser valve.
•
Once the system is clean, wait for the water to cool to use the dispenser again.
•
Exclusive use for clean water. Any other liquids such as drinks, milk, juices with pulp and seeds
may clog the valve and cause malfunctioning of the dispenser.
•
The manufacturer is not liable for damage to the system if the tank is stocked with any other
liquid other than water.
NOTES:
•
After 2 hours the water with gas could lose effervescence.
•
Wash the tank before refill it. See item "Cleaning the dispenser".
Fill only with clean water.
Failure to follow this instruction can cause health problems.
Fueling the water tank
To put water, turn and remove the small cap of the reservoir. Then fill with
a jar or bottle.
NOTE: For safety, the small cover can not be completely removed from
the reservoir.
IMPORTANT:
Always supply the water tank, when properly placed on the door.
WARNING: Fill only with clean water.
How to use the water dispenser:
1. Press a container (cup or pot) against the driver. Squeeze the trigger
holding it until the desired top up the needed water level.
2. After obtaining the desired water release the trigger, but do not remove
the container until the water has stopped running completely.
IMPORTANT:
Always remove water from the dispenser holding the container by hand.
Do not try to leave the container on the aperture of the dispenser.
NOTE: Water may have a strange taste, if the dispenser is not often used.
Cleaning the dispenser
1. Unhook the water tank, lifting it up and pulling it toward you to release
it from the refrigerator door (see figure 1).
2. Place the reservoir on a flat surface and disengage the cap
(see figure 2).
3. Disengage the valve by turning it to the left to see that the part is loose
(see figure 3). Remove and carefully wipe.
NOTE: Your refrigerator may have one of the two types of valves
illustrated.
4. Use a sponge or a soft cloth moistened with soapy water or mild soap.
Rinse thoroughly, making sure that there are no soap residue.
Dry with a clean, dry cloth.
NOTE: Do not use steel sponges or brushes to clean the tank, because
these materials can damage your product.
IMPORTANT:
Before placing the container on the door, make sure that:
•
The valve is seated, ensure that the valve is in contact with the reservoir
hole.
•
The sealing ring is placed correctly in the reservoir as shown in the
figure.
